Pool Heater (Gas fired)

[RCM]

I am having an inground pool installed. I ran a feeder from my main house panel to a pool shed panel and then branch circuits from the shed panel to main pump, vacuum pump, lights and a gas heater. Had a bonding inspection on the pool yesterday and the inspected noted everything fine (including panel) except that I needed a service disconnect for the heater (only the heater). The Shed is adjacent to the equipment pad (~5') and when standing at the panel inside the shed I have clear site of the pool through a window. Am I still required to have a disconnect at the heater or is the circuit breaker sufficient. If not do I need disconnects for both the pumps as well?
